The man chops wood, and cooks too…

Once in a while, the lady of the house takes a few days off to travel…
Leaving the man of the house to fend for himself…

Winter is quite a lovely season in Japan, except for the cold… 🙂
Being a Malaysian born in the warm waters, my systems have yet to fully adapt to the cold…
Even after all these years of continuous residence…

Anyway, winter season almost always equals ‘chopping wood’ season…
An activity that I cherish doing, as it ‘makes me feel like a man’ to be able to handle the chain saw and the chopping axe… 🙂

Can you believe it?
I set the camera, pushed the shutter, ran over, picked up the axe, and clicked it went…

And yes, the man cooks too… albeit sometimes…
Here, I have used some vegetables from my garden…
Winged beans, pumpkin, tomato… on top of some conger eel and tofu…

For seasoning, I had the opportunity to use the Thai sweet and mildly hot sauce given to me as a gift from a friend at Chiang Mai…
The taste? Not too bad…

It’s great to know that you’re in good shape, and in a good mood too I might add judging from your recent activities in Japan. I’ve longed for visiting Japan in the near future. It’s unique culture, places and it’s benevolent people is truly endearing to me.
